                 Computers connected to the network (Internet) are either servers or clients, and they
                 communicate with each other through networking protocols. The clients send requests to
                 the servers, and the servers respond immediately with the required data.

                 The server stores the files and information in the form of websites. A website is a collection
                 of web pages. A web page is a document that contains text, graphics, videos, audio, and
                 links to other pages. Every web page of a website has a unique address called the Uniform

                 Resource Locator (URL). This URL allows us to access any web page from anywhere in the
                 world. Have you ever wondered how these web pages are created? HTML is the most widely
                 used language to design web pages.




                   HTML


                 HTML stands for Hypertext  Markup Language. It is a markup language that describes
                 the structure of a web page. It allows us to create web pages that contain paragraphs,
                 headings,  links  and  block  quotes.  The  output  of  HTML  web  pages  is  same  on  any  type

                 of  computer  and  on  any  operating  system,  e.g.,  MacOS,  Windows,  etc.  HTML5 was
                 issued/released as a W3C Recommendation in 2014.
